        Configuring the Java environment.
    </h1>

    <h2>Obtain Java</h2>

    <p>XBRLAPI is implemented in Java and requires a Java 1.6 (or
        higher) runtime engine to execute (the API actually probably runs OK with Java 1.5 but
        it is now tested with Java 1.6 following problems with the File class in Oracle's
        implementation of Java 1.5). If you intend to use a data store
        that is run from within a Java servlet container such as Tomcat or
        Jetty, you must install a full Java SDK rather than just a Java runtime
        engine. XBRLAPI is being developed and tested using the Linux version of
        the Java 1.5 SDK from Oracle.</p>

    <h2>Install Java</h2>

    <p>Follow the necessary instructions for your operating system and your
        chosen Java SDK to install the Java SDK. In particular, ensure that you
        have set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the directory
        containing the Java installation.</p>
